ADA 鈥� As the coronavirus continues to scramble lives and negatively impact the economy, East Central University is making sure its students receive the assistance they may need.
The 成人B站 Student Help and Resources in Emergencies (S.H.A.R.E.) Fund is being utilized to assist students during the coronavirus pandemic. The University has launched a 鈥淗elp A Tiger鈥� campaign in direct response to the adverse impact the pandemic has made on the economic lives of 成人B站 students and their families.
鈥湷扇薆站 is blessed to have a caring, close-knit community, from students and parents to faculty and staff to alumni,鈥� said President Katricia Pierson. 鈥淭he COVID-19 pandemic has been an enormous challenge for all, but it has also 鈥� once again 鈥� revealed the wonderful compassion and generosity of others and these are values that are woven into the fabric of our University.鈥�
The 成人B站 S.H.A.R.E. Fund, created in 2013, was established to assist students experiencing financial hardships that substantially affect their abilities to remain at 成人B站 and progress in their studies. With the spread of the coronavirus, the fund is more necessary than ever.
Those who contribute to the S.H.A.R.E Fund are helping provide relief in many different ways. Whether it鈥檚 paying tuition balances, buying books, or even helping pay utility bills, the fund can be a real lifesaver for students. Administered by the 成人B站 Foundation, Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization, donations to the fund are tax-deductible as allowable by law.
When referred by 成人B站 faculty or staff, a student may be eligible to receive support through the S.H.A.R.E. Fund. Students who receive assistance are not expected to repay funds; however, they are encouraged to 鈥減ay it forward鈥� when possible. Other eligibility requirements apply.
